We already saw this movie. It was called Junior, and it wasn't very good. I prefer Twins.

I'm not that interested in it, but if you get a flaming boner for this type of thing then you do you.

 

[Catphish]

When I wished for more Japanese programming on Netflix, this fuckin ain't what I had in mind.

 

[VN1X]

First they took away women's voting rights... now they're taking away their right to birth?!

FUCK MEN.

 

[Fbh]

We already did this in 1994. Back when we knew the concept should be a comedy.

 

[ManaByte]

I'm starting to root for nuclear war.

 

[trikster40]

I don't know how Netflix is bleeding subscribers with such amazing content like this.

 

[Javthusiast]

Would watch if it was an animated Pregario show.

He's then forced to confront social inequities he'd never considered before.

This show sounds like a blast based on the synopsis

 

[Zeroing]

Wait where does the baby comes out? From his butt?

 

[dr_octagon]

I stared at my washing machine for 2 hours, it still more interesting than viewing the trash Netflix put out.

I also have the added bonus of not being added to an FBI watchlist.

 

[SJRB]

Can we not?

Glad I cancelled my subscription.

 

[Cyberpunkd]

But with the recent culture memo I'm lost - so employees cannot be woke, but shit Netflix runs can? I'm confused.

It was more like on the amount of offense they took, if they felt it was too much then they should quit.

Guess again...

 

[adamosmaki]

yeah this BS is what gonna save netflix

 

[jason10mm]

I can see the promise of this premise if it hits a lot of jokes about being pregnant that men don't necessarily consider and women can laugh about. It probably has little appeal to folks without kids.

Hopefully they are also working on "I've got balls?!?" about a woman who suddenly grows a pair and can open jars all by herself and squish spiders with ease

 

[EviLore]

Trailer isn't bad, with bizarre deadpan lines like "what kind of man gives birth?"

Nani!!

 

[daffyduck]

 

[RoboFu]

No wonder Netflix just changed their culture memo and told woke employees if they don't like to leave.

I don't think the wokers have issues with pregnant men, they have issues with Dave Chappelle's jokes.

 

[dr_octagon]

Do you think the plot twist will be the baby is black?

 

[belmarduk]

I don't think the wokers have issues with pregnant men, they have issues with Dave Chappelle's jokes.

It doesn't matter. Activists should not be allowed to control content.

 

[Stitch]

It's based on a manga from 2012 btw

As someone with kids - my guess is it appeals precisely to singles without kids that have evenings to burn watching crap like that.

I suspect the same way female hyena's give birth...

 

[The_hunter]

I thought this was a made up joke, it's real..

There's far more loony stuff going on out there

"What is a woman?"

A woman is a human with XX sex chromosomes expressing female gonadal sex characteristics (ovaries), with female primary sex characteristics (uterus, vagina, fallopian tubes, etc.) present at birth, and female secondary sex characteristics (breasts, reduced body hair, rounded hips, menstrual cycle etc.) typically developing at puberty.

Adult human female works too IMO.

Well....

[StormCell]

Well....

I assumed this is how everyone on the far left is born, which explains why they are so hell bent on the right to have abortions -- you wouldn't want this to happen to you, right?!

 

[Artoris]

Is someone with a SAIS syndrome man or a woman

That's was a penis I was happy until…

Well....

That only works for alien babies because they have teeth!!!

 

[Peggies]

It's from an anthology film called "The Mortuary Collection". Awesome movie!

How can these people believe their own shit and that it's actually the de facto policy of the US governemnent, and soon to be Canada I will never know. How stupid can you be, and these are professors. Academia is fucked up.

Twas a joke based on the words of a recent appointee to a court.
